[The gene-enzyme system of alcohol dehydrogenase during genotype changes in Drosophila melanogaster].

Abstract

It is established, that certain variants of replacement of chromosomes performed on wild (C-S, D) and mutant (cn, vg) lines as well as continuous backcrosses, leads to the change of heat resistance and activity of F- and S-allozymes of ADH in tissues of synthesized forms of drosophila. But nevertheless, the electrophoretic mobility of allozymes does not change. It is assumed that post-translated modifications of ADH play the important part in processes of phylogenetic adaptation of Drosophila melanogaster.
